I started getting serious about blogging in since the start of 2020, and here are the ways I’ve been making money online!
Advertising
Advertising can be split into two categories: Google Adsense, and sold ad space.
Google Adsense is open to websites of all sizes, although they do require some content before they would approve you. I applied multiple times in 2019, and only got approved on the 3rd (or 4th; can’t really recall) attempt. It was at the start of 2020, so a great way to kickstart a new year of writing.
It didn’t earn me much money, but it did make me more motivated to write. I didn’t set out to earn money through my website, but it was great that there was some money to earn from doing this, regardless how small the amount was.
Over the past year or so I’ve cut down on the number of ads as they can be quite annoying....
